Of course there are the old cheap 24/2.8 and 28/2.8 - and Markus tested the equivalents on his side of the fence - but they're too old and not likely to be used on FF anyways. Ditto 135 SF. Not sure about the CM.

Why would they not be used on FF? I'd be quite interested to see the 24mm f/2.8, 28mm f/1.8 and 28mm f/2.8 tested on photozone. They are still being sold and potentially quite good value for money compared with the alternatives - if the tests confirm it, of course. One of the benefits of full frame IMHO is having access to these wide angle primes that just don't exist in APS-C land.
